Did he really say that?
Because that’s a colossally stupid thing to say.
Biden is sinking himself and the country is seeing the riots for what they are and the support for ANTIFA and BLM is waining. There is absolutely no need to galvanize those people.

Context much?
He was stating how often people choke in pressure situations. He used a simple golf analogy to show how easy it is for humans to choke.

He used it as a simile. People mess up all the time.
Would you like it to be a clean shot or the putt to go in?
We are not perfect. Progs don’t understand that.

He was trying to explain how in intense highly stressed situations people choke. Not the greatest analogy. Not like he can say anything that pleases them anyway.

But the media twists it to grab the headline: trump compares shooting to golf shot
Our media is terrible.
ETA...how many people are going to look at the quote?

People get the yips in pressure situations. In the Jacob Blake case, the cop got the yips in his trigger finger 7x.

I understand but you need to be hyper aware of the soundbyte culture we live in. Especially during campaign season. Trump is unapologetically himself. It’s one of the reasons I like him. But he doesn’t need to delve into this shooting much less compare it to putting. He should’ve kept it at a zoomed out view of law and order and the Marxist nature of the organizations IMHO.
I get what he was going for. But no one will view the context. And a statement like that is going to be run into the ground that “Trump, who has golfed 4 times a day instead of doing his job, compares the ease and joy of killing black men to putting.”
It’s not a smart move.

Sir why did you shoot him 7 times?
'I only had 7 bullets'

Yeah, I think we are well past worrying about Trump showing better nuance. I thought he was in trouble after the white power re-tweet, but even that is long forgotten.

Doesn't matter when the Press is actively making things up out of thin air.

That's my crazy orange motherfricker!
This kind of off the cuff shite is what makes him human AND, likable.

I think some people think Trump is going to suddenly become someone other than Trump. Yet Trump somehow got elected and - if the madness in this nation continues - will get elected again. He's crude and always says what he thinks, politically astute or not. We had two very politically polished republicans run in the elections prior to Trump, both soundly defeated...basically because they were full of crap and everyone knew it.
